Eagle Claw Releasing New Album "Timing Of The Void," Touring With The Sword

Austin, TX band Eagle Claw will release its sophomore album "Timing of the Void" on October 30th via ECH Records. The follow up to the group's 2010 debut "Poacher," "Timing of the Void" was recorded at Folkvang Studios and produced by Bryan Richie of fellow ATX metalheads The Sword.

Featuring eight monolithic tracks of the quartet's fist-raising "InstruMetal," the record's title and overarching theme is based on The Book of Five Rings, a text on kenjutsu and the martial arts written by Japanese swordsman Miyamoto Musashi circa 1645.

Immediately following the release of "Timing of the Void," Eagle Claw will hit the road for a U.S. tour as special guests of The Sword. The tour will launch on October 29th in Corpus Christi, TX and run through November 24th in Baton Rouge, LA. Dates are available below.

"We are so proud of this album!" said Eagle Claw guitarist Matt Rade. "Everything about it turned out better than we expected (and we already knew it was gonna kick ass). Bryan Richie really helped bring this album together and captured our live spontaneity in the studio. We put the focus on getting to the point quicker, which has given us and the songs more energy than ever before."
